About this artwork
"In the face of this child, painted with colors and crowned with flowers, I found all the smiles, the light and the simple truth of my years in Africa: the Kenya that taught me to look with my soul
In this work, I tried to blend the spiritual essence of African culture with an emotional touch. Using soft pastels, I traced the sweetness and depth of the gaze of a young man, adorned with a floral crown that not only celebrates his innocence but connects… him deeply to the earth. This portrait is a journey through primitive and authentic emotions, a reminder of our intrinsic connection with nature.
The work is made with soft pastels on Pastelmat cardboard and is covered with a protective layer of fixative, it will be sold without a frame and shipped carefully protected by crystal paper and packaged with polystyrene in a special flat cardboard box, and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Credentials
- Established Artist
- Works on commission
I am a figurative artist who loves to tell silent stories through faces, flowers, symbols and light shadows.
My painting is born from an internal dialogue: each work is a trace of what I have seen, experienced or simply felt inside.
I lived several years in Africa, in Kenya, and that period left a deep imprint on my artistic gaze: the colors of the earth, the liquid light of the sunset, the full smiles, the essential that becomes poetry.
All of this comes back in my paintings, often in the form of memory, femininity, metamorphosis and small symbolic presences — like butterflies, hibiscus, or thought spheres.
I love classic techniques such as oil on canvas and pastels, but I use them to express contemporary emotions: fragility, strength, identity, research.
I paint what is not said, what remains in closed eyes, or dissolves into a nuance.
And yes… often between one work and another I lose at least one brush, but I always find a part of myself again.
